The k8sattributes processor reached version 1.0.0. It enriches telemetry with Kubernetes metadata. The announcement describes the component as stable and warns that existing configurations may require migration.

When teams use consistent telemetry attributes, it is easier to connect traces and metrics to a particular deployment. Before updating, check whether alert rules, dashboards and queries rely on old field names. Component stability does not replace a migration plan.
Question for your project
Which teams own the telemetry schema, and who approves changes to attributes used by alerts?
